  1. Hi all, I'm about to tour Europe and want some new gear (jacket and trousers) to wear, preferable summer wear, and not too expensive. One problem is that i'm a pie eater, more pies the better in fact! So I think most leathers look bad on fatties like me. Any suggestions?

    Car Tax

    Hi, I'm buying a new used car for myself tomorrow, and it has no tax on it. I had to buy 6 months tax on mine just to legally get it to the dealer yesterday, for the part-ex valuation. Would it be bad form for me to keep the tax disk I just bought and get a refund on it?
  4. Hi, I just bought my son a second hand Suzuki EN-2A 125. It has just had an mot today, and a service, but driving it home this evening we found the throttle was sticking in lower gears and neutral, any easy fix for this?
  5. Hi, my son and I want to be able to talk whilst we both ride, any reasonably priced reliable kit that anyone can recommend?
  6. Thanks. Okay I got the insert, what I do not have is the screw / bolt thing to fasten it in with. The shop said they do not sell them separately, and that they usually come with the helmet. My helmet did not have any though, anyone got any idea where I can buy some? I did look on ebay and google, but I do not really know what they ar called.
  7. and which one do I need? (Top box rack). Is it the universal rack or the extended arm bracket?
  8. Hi, I'm thinking of shooting off to Scotland next week, and need luggage. Which mounting do I need for a 2012 FZ 8 Fazer for a top box? and more importantly, are they easy for a novice tool user to fit? Also is it an easy thing to fit some sort of power input, like a cigarette lighter? I would like to use a charger for my sat nav.

    Exhaust

    Well i got the tri-oval exhaust, love it. However, its popping like crazy when I take the revs off, I expected a certain noise, but this doesn't sound quite right to me. Did I miss something, or should I ignore it?

    Exhaust

    Hi, i'm thinking of putting an aftermarket exhaust on my fz 8, I was thinking about the MTC range, I assume they are a simple thing to fit? Also, if I were to be over the noise limit (if stopped) what is the penalty? just a fine?
  12. I went there today too, got snowed on! Then thoroughly lost near Slaidburn, ended up on a single car road in the middle of nowhere. Fun.
  13. I saw 2 police bikes, 2 traffic cars and at least 2 unmarked car, and a van, in various spots around here today. Beware.
  14. I locked my back wheel on my mod 1, but released it and got it back under control, just got a minor for it, just food for thought, if it happens again, release.
  15. hell no, i went out, had a great drive.......in the car, lol.
  16. You guys doing anything tomorrow? I know the weather is supposed to be shite
  17. Hi, I just bought a cheapish Gmac helmet, an Axis, very comfortable, and it is Pinlock ready. My question for the experts is which Pinlock should I be ordering? as there does not seem to be a specific one. Ta.
  18. My apologies, i was late by 50 mins, tbh you guys were above me. I had a lovely 150 mile trip, i touched 100 once.....by accident...... usual speed 40-70.....New rider, anyone else...contact me.
  19. Had a great ride, my first! Happy to have stayed well to the rear of you suicidal sods though!
  20. Are you pushing the bikes here or something? :@
  21. 10.15 is fine, bear in mind i'm a newish rider though, so if you 'feel the need', you're on your own
